Determine the superiority of the new score over the Alvarado score in the diagnosis of Acute Appendicitis in the Hospital Regional Docente de Trujillo (HRDT). Material and Methods: An analytical cross-sectional study of diagnostic tests was carried out in a database of the HRDT, between February and December 2015. With the data extracted from the patients, a new diagnostic score was put together that was evaluated with the histopathological report, and then it was compared with the Alvarado Score to demonstrate its application. The sensitivity, specificity, PPV and NPV were evaluated in the participating variables and in the ROC curve to measure the diagnostic performance of both scores and compare them. Results: 312 patients were included in the study. 177 were men (56.73%) and 135 women (43.27%), with a mean age of 31 years (± 11.3). With a total of 267 (85.58%) patients with acute appendicitis confirmed by histopathological study. The new clinical score to be evaluated, resulting from a logistic regression according to the Wald test, was composed of 4 variables: Sex (Male), vomiting, previous self-medication and Blumberg's sign. The results of the area under the curve ROC for the new clinical score to be evaluated and the Alvarado Score were 0.711 and 0.707 respectively. Conclusions: The new score model is superior to the Alvarado score according to the area under the ROC curve, but not by a significant value. Both scores have a good diagnostic performance.
